ff'I'PING CORN—.SAVING FODDER.
Though it is not ouite in the season toperfofift this
rt t the tabor of raising and securing a crop of
ia. v.. it will do no harm to think about"and cotn
> i u former practice with the result of the care
' rVid fairly tried experiment's here introduced.
■ in Evans' Rural Economist the following ex
ltd to be taken from a rep-rt to the Kent
uty, Delaware, Agricultural Society, by S B. C.,
. the effect of "topping" corn, 4c., and as quite
a pro portion of our old raisers arc still in the habit of
! browing 1 this old custom, and some, though few, of
• "youngest ones, try the same, they scent appropri
ate " "
',\l bin I reported the last experiment on this sub
, i thought I would not trouble myself or the So
tv-with nno'her experiment of the kind ; but hav
; i -cc of very even com, and favorably situated
r t tu'l and fair demonstration of the facts of the
r- f was induced to give it one more trial, which,
in my own mind, has established the fact that no por
r i t" the fodder can be tuk n whiie green, without
" ;HT injury to the corn ; and that when the fod
fully matured, the tops may lie taken with very
i<('Sß of grain —less than two per cent.
' VOB order of this experiment was the same as last
'var alternate sections of two rows each, repeated
-"ver.l times to the amount of an acre, as follows:
No. 1. Lift standing, made one hundred baskets
r,er acre, which when shelled, weighed thirty-three
- ' if each, equal to fifty-nine bushels and forty-six
l is.
' No. 2. Topped without liladiug, made one bun
a t baskets, which weighed thirty-three pounds,
• it to fifty-eight bushels fifty-two pounds.
No. 3. Cut by the ground, made ninety-six bask
et; which weighed thirty-three pounds eacii, equal to
Nri six bushels thirty-two pounds.
No. 4. Topped and stripped, made ninety baskets
vLi h weighed thirty-three arulone-huli 1 pounds each,
equal to fifty-two bushels thisteen pounds.
'• No. 5. Topped without stripping, Sept. 15th, mads
-j ay-nine baskets, Which weighed thiitv-two and
ve-half pounds each, equal to fifty-one bushels thir
teen pounds.
" The fodder on all tho above, except No. 5, was
gathered on the 27th of Septembr, when fully ripe ;
•in of the blades dead. No. 5 was cut on the 15th,
t.s ve days earlier, while green, though fo-U*r'sav
ng vas general in the neigliborhuod at the time. It
frlM e seen by comparing it with No. 2, —which is of
t'N time class, but cut twelve days later. —that No.
*5 male four humlred and eighteen pounds, or about
sc on and one-half bushels per acre more than No 5.
■ 1 t the blades been gathered a* the same time, I
b.'Y; n<s doubt the loss in grain would have been more
it:, it doubled. This shows the ruinous waste of gath
ering fodder before the corn is ripe."
T ,:se several lots were put into a bag, each with
ihou number attached, and when carefully dried were
han I .-helled, and then weighed giving the above vc-
These experiments need no more comparing or
• "eu. ating to teach their import, viz: That no part
r f the stock or fodder can be removed while the crop
0 uring, and particularly while ripening, without
<b ising the amount of corn, to an amount which
shi oi l cause those in the habit of " topping " to con
lhe subject fairly before doing so in the future.
.■. ..ve thought often upon this 'subject, and inquir
-1 of many concerning its advantage, but the most
•tory answer was, " the old corn raisers used to
':ro always top their corn to let in the son. and
used to his. " Well here was some what of
yucnent to be sure, yet it did not satisfy my
dattbts about the propriety of the practice, uence it
1 - tuyer tried.— Farmer.

A CERTAIN CURE for SCROFULA,-

A icholas Longworth, the famous millionaire and

ultr. The directions lie gives are the following :
' ut two ounces of acquafortls on a plate ou which
jo t have two copper cents. Let it remain from eight
to twenty-four hours. Then add four ounces of clear
strong vinegar. Fat cents and all in a. large mouth
< >ottle, and keep it well corked. Begin by j uttiii"
. tr drops in a tonspoonful of r tin water, and apply
'.to the sore. Make the application three times a
day, with a soft hair peueil, or one made of soft rags.
Tf very painful, add a drop or two more water.

I request editors in all parts of the T'nion, and

THE DEMIJOHW CHURCH.
Old Judge L of Alabama kept a demijohn of Ja
maica in his private office. The Judge had noticed
that or. Monday mornings hi^Jam aica was lighter.—
Another fact had gradual itself in his
■ mind. His son Sam from the pew in
• church. On Sunday afternoon Sam came in and went
up stairs rather timJudge hailed him :
"Sain, where IriveMPu I jMdjjfr
"To church, sir," was reply. -
J " What church, Sam?"
" Second Methodist, sir."
" Ilad a good sermon, Sam 1"
" cl y powerful sir ; it quite staggered me sir."
•' Ah! I see, ' said the Judge, " quite powerful, eh
Sam 1"
'lhe next Sunday the son came home rather earlier
than usual, and apparently not so much " under the
' weather." liis father hailed him :
Well Sam, been to the Second Methodist again
to-day ?"
i " Yes, sir." '
j ('Ood sermon, my boy?"
"lact wa-s, father that I couldn't get in; church
. shut up and a ticket on the door."
j " Sorry, Sam; keep going—you may get good by it
' yet."
Sam siys on going to the office for his usual Spirit
ual refreshments, he found the "John" empty, and
bearing the following label:
j " There will be no service here to-day, this church
1 being closed for repairs."
'-•J,'* A Washington correspondent say?: There is
reason to believe that the President receives no sina 1
amount of advice from {>olitieians, who intrude upon
him with their opinions, and who arc rather more em
phatic than courteous. "I tell you, Mr. President,"
said a Senator one day, "unless a proposition for em
ancipation is adopted by'tire goverfiment. wo will all
.go to the d—l, at this very moment we are not over
or* mile from h—ll." '• Perhaps not," replied the
If. . "
Resident, "as I believe that is just about the dist
! an c from here ,o the Capitol, where you gentlemen
\ are in session."
PitEciors Bov. -"As the old cockcrows the young
ones lenru." A story is tied of a certain tnan ani
Lis wife who were almost constantly quarrelling.—
Dtn i: g the ; r quarr*!.'. their only child (a boy) was
generally present, aud of course had many of his
father's expressions. One day, when the boy had
j been doing something wrong, ths mother intendiug to
! chastise him, called him and said, " Come here, sir;
, what did you do that for ?" The boy, complacently
folding his arms, and imitating his father's manner
replied • " See here, madam, I don't want to have
any words with you!"
a little four year old boy was being put to
bed, his tit ther S lid to him : " Kiss mamma good
j night, Johnny." He at first refused, and then in
! quired, " Ho lieutenant, kiss their mammas?" "Why
| do you ssk that, my dear 7" inquired the astonished
j maternal parent. "'Cause I'm lieutenant of our coin
j pany, and Joe Walsh is captain." Being assured
that it was not beneath Lis official dignity to " kiss
mamma good night," he thus saluted her and went to
bed.
Z 'lf A w:g was passing a livery stable '.me day,in
front of which several lean horses were tied stopped
j suddenly, and gazed at them for some time with a
phiz indicating the utmost astonishment, and then ad
,i a ,
i dressei the owner, who was standing n ar, and asked
I" It ho made horses." " Made horses 1" said the
| k ight of the broom and curry comb, "why do yoi
ask such a question?" "Only," replied he, " because
! I observe YOU have several frames set up!"
! .
NOSE AND L>rs.— A sharp nose and thin lips arc
considered by physiognomists certain sign' of a
shrewdifh disposition As a criminal was once on his
j way to the gallows, proclamation was made that if
any woman would marry him under the gallows with
the rope around his neck, he would receive a •pardon.
"I will," crie d a cracked voice from the middle of
the crowd.
The culprit desired the eager candidate for matri
mony to approach the cart, which she did ; and he
began to examine her countenance.
" Nose like a knife," said he, " lipa like wafers.—
Drive on hangtna!"
—.
£ " I am a gretst gun," said a tipsy printer who
hrd been on a spree for a week. " Yes," said the
foreman, "you're a great gun and half cocked, and
you can consider yourself dis barged." " Well,"said
Typo, •' then I bud better go off."
[ ~sF° A sporting gentleman, passing by a house ob
served on the door the seperate names of a physician
and surgeon, and facetiously remarked that the cir
cumstance put him in mind of a double barreled gun,
for if one missed the other was sure to kill.
" Who gave that kiss?" the teacher cried,
"'Twas Jaky Jinks." John Jones replied,
"Come here to me," old Switchem said,
" What evil g'trius proinyed you
So rude a thing in school to uo?"
Said Jakv '• I can hardly say
Just how it happened. Any way,
To do a sum she whispered me;
And round my face her curls, you see—
That i*, her cheek —an I I—and I
Just kissed her. but I don't know why."

of the exasperation of our worthy swain when she

THE PICKETS.— "WeII, what next?" said Mrs
Partington, as she interrupted Ike, who was re iditig
the war news, " the pickets were driven in five miles!
Bless my poor soul that will make a strong fence. I

Hotel, and many othem-
Did space permit, w* could give manv hundrea
certificates, from all parts where the Pills have
been used, but evidence even more convincing thai,
the experience of eminent public men is found in
their effects upon trial.
These Pills, the result of long investigation and
study, are offered to the public as the fcwt and
moot comp'ete which the present state of rf
science can afford. They are compounded no if
the drugs themselves, but of the medicinal virtues
only of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical
process in a state of purin-• and combine3'tOgother
in such a manner as to insure the best results. This
' system of composition for medicines has been found
in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to produce a
more efficient remedy than had hitherto been ob
tain* J by any The reason is perfectly ob
vious. While by the old mod-e of composition, every
medicine is burdened with moie or Less of aeri
nionious and injurious qualities, by this each indi
vidual virtue only that is desired for the curative
c'fcot is present. All the inert and obnoxious uu;tl
iive- of eao w snbstnnee employed are left behind, the*
c.r.'aave virtues only being retained. Hence it is
self-evident the effects should prove, as they have
proved, more purely remedial, and the Pills a surer,
powerful antidote to disease than any other
ir.YcVci'/io known to the world.
As it is frequently expedient that my medicine
shnnhi Vs taken under the counsel of an attending
Physic fan, and as he could not properly of a
reinedv without knowing its composite n. J Uavc/
supplied the accurate Furmtihe by which both my
Pectoral and Pills are tmjdc t'o the whole body of
Practitioners in the t T ii : .><lStntcs and British Amer
ican Provinces. If, however, there should be any
one who fas not received them, they -'il!- br
promptly forwarded by to his request.
Of all the Patent Medicines that are offered, how

Their life consists in their mystery. I have lit
mysteries.
The composition of my proper tions is laid opei
to all men, and all who arc competent to judge or'
the subject freely acknowledge their convictions of
their intrinsic merits. The Cherry Pectoral was
pronounced bv scientific men to lie a wonderful
medicine before its effects were known. Many em
inent Physicians have declared the same tiling
my Piil.s, and even more confidently, and are will
ing to certify that their anticipations wert? ti.ote
than realized by their eii'ects upon tiiah
They operate by their powesfvl influence on the
internal viscera to purify the bir.od and stimulate if
into healthy action remove the obstructions it
the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of the
body, restoring their irregular action to health, and
bv v.' . r.vi they exist, such derange
tuents as arc the first oii.in of disease.
Being sugar-wrapped, they are pleasant to take,
and being p.m-lv vyt • Ac, no harm can aiise from
their use in any quantity.
